Hi, I am Lotoya Forde living in Kingston, Jamaica. I am a Career Development Officer at the Caribbean's top TVET training organization. I believe several things need to be done to develop an individual's skills to meet the demands of the ever-changing labour market:  1. A clear assessment of the individual skill set is to be conducted. 2. Consistent dialogue and deepened relationship between relevant stakeholders within various industries and skill training institutions is required to assess the skills gap within the industry to meet the demands. This will inform skill training institutions on areas and/or resources needed to improve or create a more relevant curriculum.
